There are plenty of seating options
at the Skylands Music & Arts Festival. The carefully maintained
athletic fields of Sycamore Park offer plenty of space to spread a tarp or blanket or place a low-profile lawn chair.
All seats under the Main Tent and Cafe Tent are general admission (first-come, first-served) seating. There is a large
wide area in front of the Main Stage where you may use the provided folding chairs, or set up your own lawn chair. Shade tarps or canopies may only be set up along the
outer perimeters of the lawn seating areas. Please be considerate by not blocking others’ views of the stage. The performers deserve to have a full audience in front of the stage. If you leave your seats unattended, they are available for others to sit in until you return.
Again, please do not obstruct the view of those behind you.
